My Hindu friend and I...

My Hindu friend and I had wiled away the afternoon, drinking coffee and discussing our respective cultures and religious beliefs. Suddenly, my Hindu friend blurted out, "Why do you have only one god? We have many gods. One god cannot possibly do everything!" Smiling at my friend, I replied, "Just think how complicated your life is with all those gods in it, while I only have one to serve!" Then I shared with him the words from the 96th Psalm:
Sing a new song to the Lord!
Sing to the Lord, all the world!
Sing to the Lord, and praise him!
Sing a new song to the Lord!
Sing to the Lord, all the world!
Sing to the Lord, and praise him!
